Here's what I've been up to since the last weekly status...

New Posts!

runtimeterror Tweaks

  • I found some code from Luke Harris (and an accompanying blog post to configure Hugo to dynamically build a robots.txt file from the Dark Visitors API. I really liked that idea since I honestly can't keep up with all the sketchy scrapers and will forget to update the file on my own. So I replaced my previous setup with Luke's dynamic approach.
  • I also swapped out the recentfm widget in the sidebar for some cobbled-together JavaScript to pull the latest "pinned" track from my Now Playing Musicthread. I like the idea of sharing a track that's stuck with me rather than just whatever happened to be played last.
  • And I tinkered a bit with the Typo implementation which "types" (with randomized jitter, typos, and self-corrections) the randomly-selected taglines/errors at the top of the sidebar. I had noticed that sometimes mistakes made near the end of the phrase didn't get corrected; I altered it so that it wouldn't insert typos in the last 3 characters.

In Other News...

  • I updated my /uses page to swap the Garmin fenix 7 in for the Pixel Watch 2 I was using previously, and to switch to ControlD from NextDNS now that it's officially supported by Tailscale.
  • We went to see Deadpool & Wolverine last night, and it was such a fun film. I was cackling basically the whole time - much to my wife's annoyance.
  • I'm back on my Golang learning, currently working through a deep dive on functions and such.
